Whistleblower says U.S. organ transplants corrupted by greed and bias
n early 2020, a director of the kidney transplant program at Parkland Health in Dallas noticed a problem. Patients were languishing on the waiting list for donated kidneys. One patient, he said, had waited nine years for a kidney transplant, and by that time he had become too sick for the procedure. Others died waiting.
“No one should have to wait that long,” he said in a recent interview.
